jrhky36 1 Report post Posted July 3, 2005 sorry jr should have taken time to welcome you. it takes some time to figure out the weather. but as a whole michigan is a great state. if you fish there are some great places to go. trout, steelhead, and salmon fishing is great, esp with a fly rod.

I watched the U18 team beat my MSU Spartans this past season. It was a great game, and I think MSU gave up a late 3rd period goal to lose the game if I remember correctly.
